EARNINGS: Total Graphite loss widens; Colefax hails US sales growth

31st Jul 2026 21:43

(Alliance News) - The following is a round-up of earnings for London-listed companies, issued on Thursday and Friday and not separately reported by Alliance News:

----------

GSTechnologies Ltd - Perth, Australia-based fintech company - Pretax operating loss is USD4.5 million in the financial year ended March 31, widened from USD2.3 million the year prior. Revenue drops to USD1.1 million from USD2.6 million. "Whilst these results are clearly disappointing, they should be viewed in the context of a year in which considerable investment was made in strengthening the group's long-term foundations. They also reflect a number of factors that make comparisons with the previous year less straightforward, including changes in accounting presentation within our payment business, differing reporting periods in certain subsidiaries, investment in regulatory compliance, the continued integration of recently acquired businesses and the repositioning of parts of our digital asset operations in response to the evolving European regulatory landscape," firm says.

----------

One Media iP Group PLC - Buckinghamshire, England-based digital music rights acquirer, publisher and distributor - Pretax profit from continuing operations is GBP590,000 in the six months ended April 30, down from GBP660,000 the year prior. Revenue declines to GBP2.3 million from GBP2.5 million, primarily due to foreign exchange impact and non-recurring revenue items that benefitted the first half of the financial year. Excluding these items, revenue on a like-for-like basis is stable. Earnings per share are 0.20 pence versus 0.23p on-year on a continuing basis. Paid streaming subscriptions grow by 8.8% over the previous year, with 837 million users globally, up from 752 million last year. "While currency movements - unfortunately outside our control - are impacting our reported revenue performance given that the majority of our income is in US dollars, the underlying performance of the business remains stable," says Chief Executive Michael Infante.

----------

Total Graphite PLC - specialist flake graphite supplier, formerly called Tirupati Graphite PLC - Pretax loss stretches to GBP5.9 million in the financial year ended March 31 from GBP5.8 million the year prior, although revenue edges up to GBP1.7 million from GBP1.6 million. Diluted EPS are 4.00 pence versus 4.49p a year ago, cash at March 31 is GBP277,000 versus GBP172,000 a year ago. Believes the company today is fundamentally stronger than it was twelve months ago. "The past eighteen months have been about rebuilding the company. The period ahead is about realising the potential of the platform we have created," it says.

----------

Narf Industries PLC - London-based cybersecurity provider - A contract in NARF's Government Research & Development arm has been cancelled "following the customer's decision to pursue an alternative technical approach", the cybersecurity firm says in its annual results. "Additionally, geopolitical tensions, including the conflict involving Iran, place increasing demands on limited government resources and budget priorities," it says. Pretax loss in the financial year that ended March 31 narrows to USD978,758 from USD3.6 million, with revenue up 50% to USD4.5 million from USD3.0 million. Narf says it continues to monitor the group's financial position and the evolving external environment closely.

----------

Ondo InsurTech PLC - claims prevention technology company for home insurers - Pretax loss widens to GBP7.3 million in the financial year ended March 31 from GBP6.2 million the year prior, but revenue climbs 20% to GBP4.6 million from GBP3.9 million. Recurring revenue increases by 51% to GBP3.8 million and now represents 83% of total sales, up from 66% a year ago. Says it enters the new financial year with "clear positive momentum". Chief Executive Craig Foster says: "We look ahead to growth in all our markets with new and existing partners as we leverage our competitive advantage in predict and prevent technology for non-weather water losses in home insurance."

----------

Supernova Digital Assets PLC - looks to identify investment and business building opportunities in the Solana and crypto currency ecosystem - Pretax loss mounts to GBP1.2 million in the six months ended April 30 from GBP215,000 the year prior. Revenue is just GBP72,000, down from GBP297,000. Basic and diluted losses per share are 0.08 pence compared with 0.01p. "The six months ended 30 April 2026 were characterised by continued weakness across cryptocurrency markets, with digital asset valuations declining significantly and creating a challenging operating environment for companies with exposure to the sector," company says. In response, the board continued to reduce the operating cost base "wherever practicable while ensuring compliance with the obligations associated with maintaining its public listing." Continues to assess the most appropriate means of meeting its ongoing operational requirements but believes that disposing of assets at prevailing market valuations would not be in the best interests of shareholders. Accordingly, looks for alternative sources of funding. Discussions with an alternative lending provider are at an advanced stage.

----------

Henderson Smaller Companies Investment Trust PLC - investment trust - Reports net asset value total return of 11.8% compared with 12.3% for the Deutsche Numis Smaller Companies Index in the financial year ended May. Total dividend increases to 29.0 pence per share from 28.0p, a year-on-year increase of 3.6%. NAV per share at the year-end is 1,004.8 pence versus 926.2p the year before.

----------

RC365 Holding PLC - payment solutions and fintech company, which operates primarily in east and southeast Asia - Says pretax loss reduces significantly to HKD12.88 million in the financial year ended March 31 from HKD30.62 million the year prior. Group revenue from continuing operations grows 57% to HKD22.14 million from a restated HKD14.11 million. Total active customer numbers increase by around 51% to 113. The improved financial performance reflects the direct results of operational restructuring and product development. "The commercial momentum accelerated following the balance sheet date provides compelling catalysts for long-term shareholder value creation," firm says. Non-Executive Chair Ian Muir explains that the majority of group revenue continued to be generated by its wholly owned subsidiary, Regal Crown Technology Ltd, providing IT support and development for payment and financial systems including ERP solutions and HC Capital Group Ltd, which provides credit card issuance, top-up services and support. "The board continues to be optimistic about the outlook for FY 2027 given the advances made during FY 2026 and our growing pipeline of potential opportunities for further growth," he says.

----------

Colefax Group PLC - London-based designer and distributor of furnishing fabrics and wallpapers - Pretax profit rises to GBP10.5 million in the financial year ended April 30 from GBP8.9 million the year prior, mainly due to an exceptionally strong Fabric Division sales performance in the US, as revenue grows to GBP115.9 million from GBP110.0 million, or by 7.3% at constant currency. Lifts final dividend to 3.3 pence per share from 3.1p, taking total dividend to 6.3p per share from 5.9p. Fabric division sales increase by 8.4% to GBP104.0 million, or by 11% at constant currency, with US sales up by 10% excluding tariff surcharges, UK up by 4.4% and Europe up by 2.5%. In contrast, Decorating division sales drop 21% to GBP8.9 million on-year. Chief Executive David Green comments: "Since the year-end sales have remained strong in the US and we are cautiously optimistic that this will continue at least for the first half of the current financial year. We consider a significant stock market correction to be the main external risk to US sales. Outside of the US, trading conditions look set to remain challenging especially in the UK although this market now accounts for just 15% of Fabric Division sales."

----------

Calculus VCT - venture capital trust - Net asset value per share is 56.43 pence at March 31, down from 59.04p the year prior. Proposes final dividend of 1.69p per share, down on-year from 1.81p after making an interim payout of 1.13p versus 1.14p.
